Together Forever

Chapter 63: Your Mrs. Gu (Section 2)

Views:

The day she got her driver's license was also the end of her internship in the court.

The internship appraisal form was stamped with a big red stamp, and it was really unspeakable to hold it in my hand.

The sun in the Central Park in the afternoon was very good, even some sun. She accompanied her grandma to feed the stray cats. In the end, because there was nothing wrong in the afternoon, she forced her to go back for lunch, but she stayed for half an hour.

She took the big Coke bottle and poured boiled water on the empty plate.

More than a dozen cats were already thirsty for eating, but in order, a few waited for water to drink. There are seven or eight-year-old children around Tong Yan. They are all with aunts or grandparents. The old people sit on the bench and watch from a distance. Except for one or two parents who are worried about hygiene, they didn't stop them. , Watch the cat drinking water behind Tong Yan.

A circle of cats in front of him, and a circle of children behind him.

I don't know, she is still an early childhood educator, leading a group of children to experience life.

Gu Ping was sending text messages intermittently because the hedge fund project invested in the European market had to travel temporarily and was leaving tonight.

The news was a little sudden, she was a little absent-minded while holding the phone, holding the bottle in her hand, but forgot to add water.

The child saw that a cat had finished drinking, but Tong Yan hadn't taken the next step, urging her anxiously: "Sister, pour water."

"My sister will take care of the cat, okay?"

The children were itching to see them, and nodded eagerly.

She handed the water bottle to the eldest girl, sat down on the bench four or five steps away, and began to question carefully, discussing what to bring. Gu Pingsheng was about to enter the ICU, so he temporarily shut down the phone after a few hurried words. According to his estimate, it should take at least half a month. She silently calculated how much luggage she would bring, but she suffered from inexperience and felt that she would forget something.

Thinking about forgetting me, there are already people sitting next to me.

It's his father who comes to visit grandma every two weeks.

"I bought some fruits and put them at home. Your grandma said that you are feeding the cats here." My father tried to get close, and he could see that it was a long thought for the opening remarks.

She hesitated for a few seconds and then smiled.

Perhaps because of Gu Ping's life, she finally began to feel soft about her father, who had been estranged for a long time.

The father and the daughter sat side by side, and there was no common topic. Most of the questions were asked by the father, and she hummed, or answered in just two or three words. Although the atmosphere was a bit awkward, it was not unbearable. After a while, the stray cats drank enough water and got into the grass in twos and threes. Finally, the little girl cautiously held the empty water bottle and ran over to give Tong Yan back.

She took it with both hands and solemnly said thank you.

"This is three thousand yuan." When the little girl turned and ran away, the father suddenly handed her an envelope.

Tong Yan was startled: "No, we are not short of money."

"Last time I came, it was nice that you weren't a little guilty," my father said vaguely. "It will take two years to wait for the first 300,000 yuan. When my stock market is completely turned over, I will take out all the money and give it to you. It’s the last time. Although it’s not much, it’s slowly making money and it can always be repaid. All the stocks have been rising during this period of time."

When my father talked about the bright prospects of the stock market, there was a rare wave of excitement in his eyes.

She faintly heard something and interrupted by raising her head: "When I was not at home, did he give you money?"

"There are two people who are rushing for money. I borrowed from Xiao Gu and paid back the money first. It's not what you really want." Father handed her the brown envelope with the money again. "There are two stock gains this time. very good"

"Are you borrowing money from someone else? Did he pay you back again?"

Tong Yan looked at his father in disbelief.

With such a face, his hair is mostly gray when he is less than fifty years old. With a cautious smile, I always feel that I will succeed in winning money by gambling in this way and regain all the affection I have lost.

It's not that she has never tried, talked with her father seriously, and even threatened to sever the relationship between father and daughter.

But in the end, the father always thinks that the family is broken and the daughter is not close because he is poor and has no money. The more radical, the more invested. Decades of frustration created my father's radical ideas, and he couldn't communicate. All the language he wanted to persuade was because he looked down on him.

She couldn't even think of the possibility of change.

What happened until the past few months really made her think that she saw hope, no more unsatisfied debts, and no need for an uneasy future.

Father began to fall into her own world, and she was very sad talking about the stocks she held with great enthusiasm. Sad, my heart gradually became empty.

For some reason, the two kittens just fed jumped on the bench, cuddled on her legs and lay down gently.

She touched the cat, scratching her chin unconsciously.

This city is the place where she was born and raised. The school where she grew up has too many classmates with unpredictable backgrounds. People like Fang Yunyun just lived well. When she was a teenager, she didn't realize where these gaps lie. She only felt inferior because of the divorce pain of her parents and the moral values that were inconsistent with her mother.

Later, there was an accident in Lu Bei, and she finally understood the real difference between family and family.

Too strong, so overwhelmed.

Studying in Shanghai became the only way to escape.

It is a pity that she has always believed that life will be better, but she has forgotten the cruelty of reality.

"In this world, you have the right to choose anything. Only your parents. You can't choose and you can't give up." When Gu Pingsheng said this sentence, how much was because of responsibility, and how much was helpless

The cat was scratched comfortably and meowed softly.

My father finished all the words, and as expected, he said in a desperate voice: "Yes, if you have 30,000 yuan around you, I need to pay the interest back first," he finished, and soon told her. , "Your mother and I have been robbing the previous house, and I will keep it for you when I grow old."

Tong Yan patted the cat on the head, got up and left without saying a word.

"Or Xiao Gu."

She stopped immediately.

"I broke up with him," she heard her voice say, "it's the matter of the past few days, you don't need to look for him anymore. I will pay him back the money I borrowed before, and I can't help you with other things. ."

After returning home, she shut herself in the bedroom and packed up the clothes he had to bring tonight.

I estimated that it would take about half a month to move out the largest suitcase from the balcony, and began to take out the suits and shirts and ties in the closet one by one, and threw them on the bed. It is good to do the law. The uniforms are black suits in public, and the shirts and ties will not have outstanding colors, and there will be no big problems in matching.

Gu Pingsheng once said that if you are staying in a hotel, it is enough to bring up to four sets.

She counted the number silently. She counted three or four times with a dull mind. The shirt was folded carefully. She used her fingers to make two creases from the reverse side, fold the brood in half, and evened the sleeves. The phone rang a few times in the middle. I didn't notice, until I folded the four shirts and carefully put them in the box, and suddenly they started to cry.

The big ones fell on the clothes.

She always tried her best to treat him well, and was reluctant to eat what he didn't like. Every night she was sleepy and had to iron him the clothes that she wore the next day. She seriously studied medicated diet and massage, just to let him. You can get healthier. Even when learning to drive, he was afraid that he would suddenly fall ill, so he could be sent to the hospital in time.

But that's the kind of person who loves it.

But it is also because I am under more pressure than ordinary people. Even if the salary is high, you need more money to cope with future illnesses, but if you stay with yourself, you have to keep making money and then get emptied. Even your grandma's body needs to be considered and dealt with.

Just thinking about it, my tears dried up.

Continue to pack the rest of the things, go to the bathroom to take a hot shower. When she came out, Gu Pingsheng suddenly pushed the door in. She was naked and watched him approaching stupidly.

"Why turn off the light to take a bath? If it wasn't for grandma who said you were at home, I wouldn't know you were here." Gu Pingsheng's voice pressed to her ear, and his hand was against her back.

Tong Yan stretched out his hand, put his arm around his waist, and rubbed his wet hair against his chest: "I really can't bear you."

"What's wrong with me?" His voice was smiling, and he took off the towel from the door and wiped her hair.

The bathroom where she took a shower was very humid, and she forgot to turn on the light and the exhaust fan. But he still refused to go out, so he leaned his face sideways on his chest and pressed his body tightly against his body. It is rare for him to wear a pure black shirt. It may be that he had just returned home and he had not had time to take off his tie. He had the temptation to commit crimes.

"I always emphasized to the other party that I am in the honeymoon period and it is not suitable to be away for a long time," Gu Pingsheng always coaxed her with a smile.

She nodded slightly.

His flight departs at 7:30 and will leave immediately before dinner.

Tong Yan found an excuse for not sending him to the airport, but only helped him to take the luggage to the elevator. I don't know why, but he didn't see the elevator after waiting for a long time. Gu Pingsheng looked at his watch and said, "Let's take the stairs." Someone pushed open the wooden door of the stairwell, watching the two people complaining and saying, "Don't wait, the elevator suddenly broke down, okay. On only five floors, climb the stairs."

The lights in the stairwell are voice-activated.

Every time she went down one floor, she stomped her feet to make the lights below come on.

The road ahead is bright, but the lights behind are extinguished one by one. When she walked past the steps where she had been crying, Tong Yan glanced at the words she wrote with her fingernails. Superficial traces will not be noticed unless you look at it carefully.

When the two walked downstairs, Tong Yan suddenly made a small fist and stretched it into the palm of his hand.

"I remember the first time you came to class. You wore a white shirt and light brown slacks. The sleeves of the shirt were rolled up. You could see the tattoos." She pursed the corners of her lips. I fell in love with you since then."

With a funny expression, Gu Ping held her fisted hand: "Don't behave like a baby, I'll be back soon."
