Math professor returns to routine

After finishing the last mouthful of porridge, Tang Wan put the chopsticks on the dining table, stood up and said, "I'm full, eat slowly!"

As she said that, Tang Wan kicked Lu You twice under the table, hinting frantically.

Lu You understood, passed two big white breads casually, got up and said, "I'm full too, eat slowly."

Grandpa nodded and said, "Okay, don't go too far, you have to offer incense to Grandpa later."

"Okay, got it."

Lu You and Tang Wan left the restaurant together.The two walked through the living room and came to the garden outside.

The emerald green lotus leaves cover the whole pond, and the breeze blows by, sending a hint of fragrance of soil and pond water.

Tang Wan raised her hands high, took a deep breath, and stretched her muscles to the fullest, showing her perfect figure to the fullest.

"Hmm—the air in the countryside is so good!"

Even though there is a lot of greenery in the urban area, compared with the countryside surrounded by mountains and forests, it is still far away, and it lacks the breath of primitive nature.

Lu You handed a piece of bread that came along to Tang Wan, and asked with a smile: "Then why don't you just stay here for a long time? Anyway, imo is over, so you can go to the school or not, and I don't choose where to write my thesis. With you by my side, it's the same anywhere."

"never mind."

Tang Wan took a bite of the bread, revealing the sticky char siew filling inside, and said with a smirk: "If you let me stay for a day or two, I can accept it for a week or two, but I really can't adapt to a long stay."

Although the beautiful environment and fresh air in the countryside are good, they are bought at the cost of convenience.Not to mention going shopping in a big supermarket, even if you want to find a milk tea shop to drink milk tea, you can't find a motorcycle guy.

"By the way, how is your imo score? Did you get full marks? Was it affected by your grandfather's death?"

"Don't even think about it, it's definitely a perfect score."

Lu Youman said nonchalantly: "Imo, to me, it's almost like you take the sixth grade math exam, you can get full marks casually."

"What you said is so annoying!"

The two of them paced around the lotus pond in the middle, and inadvertently came to the gazebo where the great-grandpa loved to stay during his lifetime.

The wooden recliner is still there, but those who use it often will not come back.

After eating the last piece of bread, Lu You walked forward silently, imitating the posture of the grandfather in his impression, relaxing and sleeping on the reclining chair.

I have to say that the elderly will enjoy it. This location can not only have a panoramic view of the whole lotus pond, but also not afraid of direct sunlight. Even in summer, you can feel the cool breeze.

Seeing Lu You's appearance, Tang Wan thought he was missing her great-grandfather, and comforted her softly: "Life, old age, sickness and death are all human, great-grandfather lived to be more than 90 years old, he has enjoyed all the glory and wealth in the world, and he was very peaceful when he left. , no pain, don't be sad."

Lu You raised his head, looked at Tang Wan with a puzzled expression, and asked in puzzlement, "I'm not sad? Why did you say this suddenly?"

As soon as the words fell, Lu You probably guessed what Tang Wan was thinking, and said amusedly, "You don't think I'm thinking about my great-grandfather, do you?"

"Is not it?"

"of course not!"

Lu You held Tang Wan's wrist, pulled her into his arms with a little force, and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, I'm more regretful about the death of my great-grandfather, I didn't let him see me imo The appearance of climbing to the top. As for sadness, sadness, nostalgia and so on, there is really not much.

The main reason is that my great-grandfather and I are not very close, or in other words, my great-grandfather and my generation are not very close. Except for occasionally seeing the younger generation do something wrong, they will come to teach a few words, and there is basically no communication at other times.

If there is no communication between relatives, let alone grandparents who have been separated by four generations, even biological parents who are connected by blood are not much closer than strangers. "

Tang Wan remembered the traditional saying that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.It takes time to cultivate family ties. Relatives who have not been in touch for a long time are not as good as neighbors who can be seen from the front door.

"Grandpa, don't you kiss anyone?"

"Not quite."

Lu You hugged Tang Wanxiang's soft body in a happy mood, and shook it slightly, the chair made an overwhelmed "squeak" sound.

"My dad's generation and grandpa were very close. At that time, grandpa was running the company and rarely had time to go home. On weekdays, grandpa taught them."

"Where's grandma? Is she not home?"

"Yes, she stayed with Grandpa to help."

Tang Wan nestled on Lu You's body for a while, then couldn't bear the heat and walked away.

"Stop lying here, let's move forward!" Tang Wan said, pulling Lu You's arm.

"Fine!"

Lu You took advantage of Tang Wan's pull to stand up, then took her hand and continued to walk around the lake.

"I heard from my grandparents that you lived here for a while when you were a child, is it true?" Tang Wan asked curiously.

Lu You admitted: "I lived there for a year or two. It was probably from the age of three to six. I don't remember exactly."

"Why do uncles and aunts let you back? Isn't it good to stay with you? Even if it's troublesome, with your family's conditions, it's easy to hire a few nannies, right?"

Logan didn't understand this approach.It's fine if the family is in trouble. If the Lu family is so rich, does it still need to leave the child to others?

Lu You's face became a little cloudy, it seemed that this question was very difficult to answer, Tang Wan did not rush, and waited patiently.

The atmosphere of silence lasted for a while before Lu You said, "Tang Wan, do you still remember what I told you that my parents got married after they were pregnant with me?"

Tang Wan nodded and said, "Remember, get married with your son!"

"Because of this, after they got married, they were either preparing for pregnancy or taking care of me who couldn't walk. They had no time for honeymoon at all."

Now Tang Wan understood, and said, "You mean, they wanted to play, but they didn't want to take you, so they threw you back here?"

"Yes."

But then Tang Wan realized something was wrong again, and asked, "That's not right! I can understand honeymoon without children, but isn't the three-year honeymoon a bit long?"

"You don't understand this. A 36-month honeymoon is also called a honeymoon."

Logan: ...

"Uncles and aunts have explained with actions what is meant by 'Parents are true love, children are accidents'."

"Just kidding, it's actually not as long as three years. Every time they go outside to play, they will go home and stay at home for a week or two before starting, so I think it's okay."

The two walked around the lotus pond, and when they were about to return to the house, they happened to meet a middle-aged woman with a rather old face dragging a suitcase.

Lu You took the initiative to say hello and said politely, "Good morning, Aunt Lan."

Tang Wan saw the woman's appearance clearly, and immediately remembered who this person was.When my great-grandfather was still alive, she was always by his side, never leaving.

The woman known as Aunt Lan stopped in her tracks, and with a slight arc of her mouth, she replied kindly, "Good morning, Dabao."

"Ha... cough cough!"

Tang Wan turned her head sideways, pressed her lips tightly together, and suppressed the smile in her heart.For some reason, she couldn't help laughing every time she heard someone call Lu You Dabao.

Lu You glanced at his girlfriend speechlessly, and continued: "You have so much luggage, are you going to move out?"

Aunt Lan didn't hide anything, and said truthfully: "Yes! My duty is to take care of Mr. Da. Now that he's gone, I should go too."

"You can do other work."

Aunt Lan shook her head and refused, "It's unnecessary. I've already told Buyu that I'm going to retire, and I'm leaving today."

Aunt Lan looked around softly, and said: "I have stayed in this family for more than 30 years, and I have also taken care of Mr. Da for more than 30 years, watching this family grow from a small villa to a large manor.

I am very familiar with every plant, tree, brick and tile here, but after Mr. Da left, it made me feel very tortured.No matter where I go, the figure of Mr. Da is lingering in my mind. "

Aunt Lan withdrew her gaze, landed on Lu You again, and said, "So, do you understand why I'm leaving?"

Hearing this, Lu You didn't want to stay any longer.There is no banquet in the world that lasts forever. When it comes time to say goodbye, don't worry about it. You can let it go and look forward to seeing you in the future.

"You have worked hard all these years!" Lu You said sincerely.

"It's on my side. Thank you for providing me with a good job. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Aunt Lan finally patted Lu You on the shoulder and said, "I wish you and Miss Tang Wan good health and long life."

"Yes! You can come back and offer incense to Grandpa when you are free."

"must."

Watched by the two of them, Aunt Lan's figure moved away step by step until she disappeared.

Tang Wan said with emotion: "More than 30 years! I can't guarantee that I will like you for more than 30 years, but Aunt Lan has worked in your family for more than 30 years! Is your salary particularly high?"

Lu You thought for a moment, then replied: "It's not particularly high, with Aunt Lan's status in our family, it's about 40 to [-] a year."

"Before tax?"

"After tax, five social insurances and one housing fund, including food and housing."

"I'll go! The treatment is really good! I'll count her as low as 30 a year, and 30 million in 900 years! She actually earned 900 million!"

Tang Wan grabbed Lu You's arm, and said with burning eyes: "Husband, do you still need a nanny! I'm very diligent in cleaning!"

Lu You pinched Tang Wan's moist face, and said with a smile: "You will become an accountant in the future, but please don't tell people that your husband is in mathematics, I'm afraid of embarrassment!"

"What do you mean? Do you dislike me?" Logan pursed her lips and said unhappily.

Lu You explained with a smile: "First of all, it is impossible for ordinary servants to earn as much as Aunt Lan. If you want [-] yuan a year, you have to work in my house for at least ten years. The entire manor, excluding Aunt Lan , In total, there are only four or five.

Secondly, the annual salary of more than 30 yuan has been raised in recent years, which was not so much before.And earlier in the 80s, it was only 2000 yuan a year, and none of them exceeded four figures, let alone six figures. "

"Starting in ten years? It's too long! And it's only 30, which is really little!"

Logan was disappointed.With my own ability, ten years later, not to mention a family property of tens of millions, I am still confident in my annual salary of one million.

"Sister, have you been with me for so long that you have no idea about money? You can earn 30 yuan a year as a nanny. There are not many in the world, right?"

"It seems to make sense. How long have you worked in your family? Do you usually have holidays? Do you work a lot of overtime?"

"I'm not sure about this. You have to ask your uncle. He manages our family's affairs."

At this moment, a passing servant came to them and reminded them softly: "You two, it's time to burn incense."

Lu You replied politely: "Okay, let's go there now."

The servant bowed slightly to the two and left quickly.

Lu You took Tang Wan's hand and said, "Let's go, Concubine Ai, it's time to get down to business."

"Ah."

The two walked towards the mourning hall.

"I almost forgot to ask, how did you guess the news of Grandpa's death?"

"Is it difficult? It's not a holiday, my father, mother, sister and you all go back to your hometown, and they hesitate to tell me. I can't think of any other answer except that my grandfather passed away. Besides, your way of changing the subject is really It’s so rigid that anyone can see that there’s something wrong.”

Logan: (σ-`д)
