Back to the Years When My Father Was in School

Chapter 22: Exclusively published by Jinjiang Literature City

Lu Yan chased out of the school gate with the flow of people after school, but Shen Kuo's figure was missing.

This guy flashed too fast too.

She returned to school, took the bicycle from the garage, and was going to take a look under the overpass.

As soon as the lock was opened, Lu Zhen hurried over and called her to stop her: "My parents booked a private room at the Century City restaurant tonight, and I want to have dinner together for you to celebrate."

"Ah, good!"

Lu Yan said that she would run after riding the car. Lu Zhen quickly pressed her shoulder with her eyes, "Where to go!"

"It's urgent, let it go!" Lu Yan patted his hand and rode away in the car.

"I know who you are going to find!"

Behind him, Lu Zhen shouted at her: "You are not allowed to go! I heard that, I'm not allowed!...Smelly girl, when you come back, I'll tell you when you're done!"

Lu Yan left Lu Zhen behind and rode to the bottom of the overpass. There were people in the CD booth at the bottom of the bridge, but it was not Shen Kuo, it was Zhong Kai.

"Uncle Zhong, isn't Shen Kuo here?"

Zhong Kai smiled and said: "Little girl, if you don't know what to call you, you can call me Zhong Zhong or Kai Kai. It's really not good. You can call Zhong Zhong or Kai Kai. You uncle, hahahaha, hahahaha. It really takes advantage."

"That... Brother Kai, has Shen Kuo ever come back?"

"Seeing the stone arch bridge opposite, you will go there to smoke when Lord Shen is in a bad mood."

"Okay, thank you Brother Kai!"

Lu Yan rode his bicycle again and drove towards the stone arch bridge.

The small bridge straddles the city river, on both sides are relatively retro low-rise buildings, this area has not been developed in the process of urban modernization, and retains the original taste of the ancient style.

On both sides of the river, most of them are carrying heavy burdens and doing business, and sometimes farmers can even see farmers driving by with cows and horses.

Shen Kuo sat on the stone fence on the arch bridge, facing outwards, staring at the sparkling river, his heels knocking on the bridge.

His beautiful dark coffee-colored eyes refracted the sunlight, making them more transparent and light.

Lu Yan parked her bicycle by the bridge and walked carefully to him: "Shen Kuo, I'm sorry, I broke my promise."

"Nothing I'm sorry."

Shen Kuo jumped off the railing and turned to leave.

Lu Yan chased up and explained: "Because Lu Zhen said that his parents are here, and want to say if they have the opportunity to get back together..."

However, before she finished speaking, Shen Kuo suddenly squeezed the back of her head with his backhand, pulled her closer to him, looked at her peach eyes that resembled Lu Zhen, and said in a deep voice, "Don't be too self-righteous."

"Uh."

"You are Lu Zhen's sister. God knows how much I hate you."

Shen Kuo's voice was fierce and hard, like a taut rubber band——

"So... don't think how important you are, you are in my heart, nothing."

In an instant, the pitiful look on the girl's face disappeared, and it was replaced by a subtle look of betrayal.

"You, you hate me for taking me to play games, and... come to listen to me singing." Her eyes were slightly red, and her eyes were stained with wet water: "I thought... I could be a friend."

"Be a friend?" Shen Kuo suddenly squeezed the girl's slender wrist: "Your brother is right, I am playing with you."

Lu Yan suddenly widened her eyes. At least, in her limited life experience, no one had ever said such cruel words to her. The lingering around her is full of love, the love of family and friends...

She has never been hurt like this.

"So... you mean, you beg and hate me."

The girls were all choked up, and the intermittent words couldn't be explained clearly.

Shen Kuo let go of her hand and pushed her away: "Go away."

He turned around, resisting the piercing pain in his chest, and closed his eyes.

Lu Yan lowered his head, trembling hands in the canvas bag, touching and touching. After touching for a long time, she took out a small blue box about the size of a finger and pushed it into his hand hard—

"happy Birthday."

She finished talking in a crying voice, hurriedly ran off the bridge, rode her bike and left obliquely, and wiped a tear when she left.

Shen Kuo was stunned in the same place, for a long time he couldn't get back to his senses.

He never told anyone his birthday, how would she know...

With his cold and stiff hands, he opened the small blue box, which was hot with a mechanical lighter of extremely fine workmanship.

Shen Kuo took out the lighter and tried it. With a "click", a small flame jumped up and was extinguished by the wind.

Shi Xuexian took Shi Ya and appeared at the entrance of Century City Hotel.

Shi Ya looked at the luxurious golden lion at the door of the hotel and asked Shi Xuexian tremblingly: "Mom, Uncle Lu didn't let us come. Will he be angry when we come over."

"You have to get angry. I know that the vixen doesn't give up to your Uncle Lu, and he wants to remarry. I will never let this happen."

"Mom, in general, the vixen is the name of the original couple's mistress..."

Shi Xuexian glared at Shi Ya, and Shi Ya immediately fell silent.

The well-dressed and courteous Bing Li asked Shi Xuexian if he had a reservation. After Shi Xuexian said the name of the private room, Bing Li took them in.

Shi Ya felt that her mother was really capable, and she could even find out the name of the private room where they ate.

This time, Lu Zhen had planned for a long time, and it was he who said badly before bringing his mother over, and the family reunited for dinner.

He asked his mom and dad to order food in the private room and stand at the door by himself, acting as a "door boy".

Lu Yan stood listlessly next to him, looking uneasy.

"Hey, what's the matter with you?"

"Don't talk to me." Lu Yan turned around and knocked his head on the wall: "I'm annoying."

Lu Zhen grabbed her shoulders and asked casually, "Shen Kuo?"

"Yeah."

"He's just a bitch, he has a problem with his brain, so don't pay attention to him."

"Dad, why are you always against Shen Kuo?" Lu Yan finally raised her head and asked him curiously.

"I'm against him, it's obviously that he always has trouble with Lao Tzu, okay!"

Mentioned this person, Lu Zhen was furious: "Since the first day of the new year, that guy has always worked against Lao Tzu! Covertly framed Lao Tzu! Otherwise, who the **** will have to do something with him if he is full!"

"why!"

"Envy that your brother is handsomer than him."

Lu Yan's mouth twitched, she thought Shen Kuo might be better than Lu Zhen, but he was not as particular as Lu Zhen, so his skin was not as white as Lu Zhen, and his clothes were not as fine as his, but only by his appearance, Shen Kuo Definitely win.

"I think there must be a reason for Shen Kuo to target you. Have you ever thought of having a calm and peaceful chat with him and turning the fighting into a jade silk?"

"Make a hammer."

"..."

"Hey! I found you girl, three words can't do without Shen Kuo." Lu Zhen carried her collar around in circles: "What do you want to do, ah, did you fall in love with him?"

"No, no, it's just annoying."

"If you are hated, you will be hated. He is hated in the whole world."

"Woo..."

Lu Yan hit Lu Zhen, and Lu Zhen immediately fought back. Just as the father and daughter were fighting at the door, Shi Xuexian led Shi Ya and appeared at the door of the private room.

"Lu Zhen, is your dad in there?"

Lu Zhen frowned: "Why are you here?"

Shi Xuexian smiled and said, "Of course I should come over to eat as a family."

"Family? I'm sorry, it's parents celebrating my sister today. It has nothing to do with you."

Lu Yan gently pulled Lu Zhen's sleeve, leaning close to him and whispering: "Could it be Grandpa who called her over?"

"It's not so cruel."

Lu Zhen was also uncertain, but in any case, he couldn't let this woman ruin the reunion of their family.

"Sorry, Aunt Shi, please go back, today's meal has nothing to do with you."

Shi Ya stepped forward and said not to be outdone: "Uncle Lu didn't even tell us to go. Why did you tell us to go."

It happened that Lu Jian came out and asked Lu Zhen why he still didn't enter the house.

He and Meng Zhining stayed in the private room, and the air exploded with embarrassment||

"Brother Jian." Shi Xuexian immediately posted it, and gently wrapped his arm around him: "I heard that you are eating here, so I want to come over, and we will invite Miss Meng to have a meal together."

Lu Jian didn't expect Shi Xuexian to come over, her expression was a little unnatural, she took her hand out of her arms, and pressed her throat and said, "Today's dinner is for Yanyan and her mother to celebrate. What are you doing?"

"I... I also come to celebrate Yanyan."

"Go back quickly." Lu Jian also didn't seem to think it was appropriate: "Go back and let the kitchen cook for you."

"Brother Jane, look at me... I'm here."

Lu Jian never liked women to make claims, so his face sank: "Go back."

He was talking about a unique temperament, and Shi Xuexian did not dare to annoy him easily.

At this time, Meng Zhining's voice came from the private room: "It's so hot outside, it's rare for Ms. Shi to come over to guard her husband under the scorching sun. She is in good spirits. Come in and sit down."

Meng Zhening spoke. Of course, Lu Jian didn't have much to say, so she let her in.

Lu Zhen and Lu Yan looked at each other, and Lu Zhen could pinch a pencil between her brows.

Shi Xuexian adjusted her position and entered the room and sat directly between Lu Jian and Meng Zhining.

During the meal, there was no pleasant scene that Lu Zhen had expected. Everyone was eating in silence, and the atmosphere was once embarrassing.

Shi Xuexian wanted to be in love with Lu Jianxiu, and kept adding vegetables to him. Lu Jian said several times, let her eat it by herself, don't give it to him. Shi Xuexian said to Meng Zhining, "This is how our brother Jian is. Braised elbows in brown sauce, he likes braised elbows in brown sauce the most. By the way, how come there is houttuynia cordata? Don't you know that Brother Jian hates houttuynia cordata most?"

Meng Zhining smiled decently and said: "This is what your husband ordered."

After speaking, she took a chopstick Houttuynia cordata and put it in a bowl: "All the dishes I order on the table are my favorite dishes. If it doesn't suit Ms. Shi's appetite, I'm really sorry."

When these words were said, Shi Xuexian's face was a little unpleasant.

Not to be outdone, she continued: "What strong women are admired in society now, I think they are all nonsense. The final destination of a woman is the family. If you can't even know what kind of food your husband likes to eat, it's no wonder that you are divorced now. Why is the rate so high."

Shi Xuexian smiled at Meng Zhining: "Miss Meng, what do you think."

Meng Zhining said with a blank face: "Since Ms. Shi emphasizes the importance of family and believes that women should return to the family, then Ms. Shi must be a good hand for cooking, washing dishes, and mopping the floor."

"I..."

Lu Zhen promptly said: "She will do nothing at home, go out to play mahjong all day long."

"That's not what I said, I can make it easy for my husband after work every day, listen to my husband, and won't quarrel with him, that's enough, right, brother Jane."

Lu Jian rubbed his forehead without saying a word, very depressed.

Lu Yan looked at his grandfather and could understand his current mood. The former and the current post were fighting with guns and sticks. He was caught in the middle and naturally said nothing was right, and it was wrong to protect anyone.

After this experience, Lu Yan's mood improved a lot, watching how Meng Zhining cleaned up Shi Xuexian with interest.

"I understand. So what Ms. Shi means is that the value of a woman is to be like a canary at home, to please her husband. When the husband is happy, he will give you some snacks, right?"

"Is it wrong?"

"Iser serves people, what if one day gets old and fades and cannot please her husband?"

"I, when did I say I want Israel to serve people, you look down on people too much."

"Don't get excited." Meng Zhining smiled calmly: "Besides, we are only discussing the status quo of society, and I didn't name you Ms. Shi."

Shi Xuexian breathed, and her plump **** fell together. No matter how smooth she was, she was not Meng Zhening's opponent because of her cleverness.

"I think it's wrong for women to always do business outside, regardless of family and children." Shi Xuexian brought the topic back to the topic again.

"I agree with you, but everyone has their own ambitions. Not all women should be confined to the family and kitchen. If the husband can't give respect and support, then even if it is divorced, there is nothing to be a pity."

After Meng Zhining finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Jian.

Lu Jian constricted these eyes, and a wave of waves spread across the dark bottom of his eyes.

Meng Zhining looked at Lu Yan: "Yanyan, you must also remember that girls should never lose themselves for love. No matter how much you like that man, you should first love... yourself."

"Well, I remember." Lu Yan nodded obediently.

Seeing that Meng Zhining was educating her daughter, Shi Xuexian turned her head and said to Shi Ya: "Ya Ya, you have to focus on your family in the future. Don't learn from the girls in society, and talk about feminism and independence. Otherwise, you will end up with yourself. "

Meng Zhening got up with the bag and said, "In this way, I have almost eaten too, so I'll take a step ahead, Lu Jian, you accompany your wife to have a good meal. Yanyan, Xiaozhen, send mom out."

Lu Yan and Lu Zhen immediately got up from their seats and prepared to send Meng Zhining away. Lu Jian looked up and said to her: "About the cooperation between Lu and Meng, next time I come to the company to talk to you in detail."

"Make an appointment first." Meng Zhining glanced at him: "I don't know if I'm free yet."

"Yanyan is looking for you, if you say you are free anytime, I will be running out of time when I look for you."

"Can you compare with my daughter." Meng Zhining smiled faintly and touched Lu Yan's head: "Is it a good girl."

Lu Yan took Meng Zhining's hand and had to say that she really liked Grandma Meng's style so much, even if it was placed in the next twenty years, such a woman's charm would be irresistible.

Meng Zhining stepped on the height of hatred, speeded up the pace and walked out of the hotel. Only then did he reveal his true temperament and became very angry: "Who is your dad looking for? I have also seen!"

Lu Zhen and Lu Yan looked at each other, and said in unison: "You just know."

"That's how she teaches children, ah! It's terrible!"

Meng Zhening shook his head and said, "No, I can't rest assured to leave you at your dad's house and let such a woman stay by your side. It's fine!"

Upon seeing this, Lu Zhen quickly said, "Mom, if you remarry with Dad, we won't be affected by her."

Assisting Lu Yan also nodded again and again.

"Remarriage is impossible, and it will never be possible. Even if the dead man kneels in front of me and begs me, it is impossible to remarry!"

"Mom, don't speak so absolutely."

"Okay, go back, you two..."

She pondered for a moment, and said, "I'll go to consult a lawyer again, at least I have to win Yanyan back."

Lu Yan immediately hugged Lu Zhen's waist: "I don't want to be separated from my dad...my brother!"

Lu Zhen cried and said, "Mom, you only want your sister, don't you want me?"

Meng Zhining patted Lu Zhen on the back of the head: "What an adult, all right, let's go."

At night, Lu Yan sat alone on the terrace, holding her guitar and playing an unknown little tune.

I felt bored.

I don't know why he cares so much, what Shen Kuo said.

In the previous life, she thought that Shen Kuo was a cruel man without any emotions. In middle age, she was lonely and widowed. All her thoughts and cares were put on how to avenge Lu Zhen.

Such a guy is so terrifying, Lu Yan couldn't help shivering even if he just glanced at him more.

But back twenty years ago, I have witnessed his difficulties and struggles when he was young, and occasionally I can see him smile with a bit of sincerity.

Lu Yan's heart was filled with so many tastes, and these tastes fell to her fingertips, broadcasting a string of clear melody.

She wanted to write a song to him as compensation for her breach of promise.

Just as Lu Yan slowly raised his head, he suddenly saw the street corner not far away. The tall young man was standing alone under the street lamp, his slender wrist under his half-sleeve carrying a lighter.

One open, one close.

The flames went up and down in the dark.

He raised his head and looked at her, his dark eyes hidden in the shadows beneath his brows, indistinguishable.

Lu Yan felt her heartbeat suddenly speed up a bit. She stood up, walked to the railing of the terrace, and wanted to wave her hand to greet him, but when she thought of what Shen Kuo said, her hand shrank again tremblingly.

Shen Kuo said that he hated her.

There is no moon tonight, and the night is as dense as ink that cannot be melted. Lu Yan stared at him through the dense night, only to see his unclear silhouette.

A few minutes later, Shen Kuo hung a small pocket on the iron fence at the entrance of Lu's house, turned and left, and disappeared at the end of the wet long street.

Lu Yan hurriedly put down the guitar, hurried downstairs and ran out, removing the white pocket.

There is a small transparent paper box in the pocket with a small strawberry-shaped cake inside.
