Searching for the old lover Zhang Baotong 2019.3.2 Toronto trip

6. Warm invitation

As we walked through a grove, she continued to say to me, "After I divorced Sun Baoliang, I lived with Ye Jiwei for many years, and I never dared to tell my parents about our divorce. I know that no one who is a parent wants their daughter to get divorced. It wasn't until I had my second child that I told them that I divorced Sun Baoliang and married Ye Jiwei. They were taken aback at first, but they didn't blame me, they just said that as long as I lived happily, they were relieved. I may have been back to China three times, but each time I went back to China, I went back alone. I don't want acquaintances to know that I'm divorced. Therefore, my parents never told anyone about my divorce. ”

I said, "I went to your house, and your mother didn't tell me that you were divorced." ”

"I don't want to get divorced, but if I don't get divorced, I'm going to have to endure that hardship and distress day after day, year after year," she said. But the hardships and distresses are so torturous that they can't stand it. ”

I said, "The toil and suffering I had when I went to the countryside was much more difficult than yours." Especially in the spring planting and double rush season, every day is not dawn, the horn sounds, you have to hurry to work, go down to the field to plant rice or cut rice, until nine o'clock, before going home to make breakfast, generally the leftovers are fried, just eat and go to work again. Then I worked until two o'clock in the afternoon, then went home to make lunch, hurriedly ate the meal, and continued to work, until nine o'clock in the evening, when it was so dark that I could not see, and then I could get off work. Because my waist has been bent, I can't straighten my waist when I get off work, and I always have nightmares when I sleep at night. When I get back to the house in the evening, I have to cook again. Sometimes there are no vegetables, so I pick two chili peppers from the farmer's field and stir-fry a dish. And just like that, I worked for two or three years. But some of them have been in the countryside for seven or eight years. ”

She said, "Actually, many of my classmates went to the countryside at that time, but I was an only child, so I didn't have to go to the countryside. So, I stayed in school and tutored, and then I went to university. If I had gone to the countryside like you, my fate might not have been the same as it is now. ”

I said, "Yes, if a person doesn't go to college, his fate is very limited." If I had been admitted to the undergraduate program by then, my fate would have been very different. I'm sure I'm not going to be a teacher in a secondary school, and I'm afraid I've already gone to the United States or the United Kingdom. ”

She said, "Then we won't know each other and know each other." ”

We followed the trail for a long distance, but there was still a field in front of us. The wilderness here is not like the country, where there are fields everywhere, and the wilderness here is all meadows and slopes, a sign of primitive wilderness. It's easy to think of the savage scene at the beginning of humanity.

She asked me, "How many days are you going to stay here?"

I said, "Not necessarily, it could be two or three days, or three or five days." ”

She advised me, "It's not easy to travel thousands of miles to have a good time for a few days." There are many beautiful scenery to see. ”

I said, "I'm going to go to Niagara Falls." "I've seen it on TV many times and I'd love to see it in person.

She said, "I should go and see, I can travel a few times in my life, let alone come here from thousands of miles." ”

Looking at her somewhat warm appearance, I couldn't help but feel a little impulsive, so I said, "Actually, I'm not here to see the scenery, but to see you." ”

She looked a little taken aback, and said, "Why did you come all this far to see me?"

I said frankly, "I have a desire to visit all the people I've been in love with and met in the past, and I want to see how their lives are like." ”

She was puzzled and said, "How do you have such an idea? Is it for writing?"

I shook my head and said, "I feel like they're all part of my life and memories." I want to compare them with my marriage to see if my marriage is really bad. ”

"What happened?" she asked.

I said, "I don't know yet." ”

She asked, "And what do you want from me?"

I said, "I want to see how you're doing." Because you're the most promising girl I've ever dealt with, I think you'll live a very good life. Originally, I thought you were in Singapore, and I was going to see you in Singapore. However, your mother said you went to Canada. So, I asked your mom for your address and phone number, and I hurried here. ”

She sighed softly and said, "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." ”

I said, "No disappointment, you're still doing well." When I saw you this time, I felt that I knew you more truly and clearly. ”

She said with some curiosity, "Have you ever wondered what it would be like if we lived together?"

I smiled and said, "Why didn't you think about it? I may not make you so rich, but I will make life happy. ”

She nodded and said, "I believe that." can only say that the two of us have no fate. ”

The two of us stood together in the vast field and began to walk back. All the way back to the lake, she said to me, "If you go around here again, I'll go back to making dinner." ”

I said, "Okay, then you can go back." I shook her hand and watched as she walked down the path by the lake toward the town.

I sat in the warm sun, staring at the lake in a daze, immersed in the reverie of life. What is most important in life? Naturally, it is work and position, but the most exciting thing is lovers and lovers. Everyone will have some people in their life who they love and love. Every lover and lover will leave a legacy in their hearts. This style is the most beautiful and gorgeous scenery in the soul.

At about five o'clock, my phone rang, and as soon as I saw that it was Xu Lisha, I said, "What about cooking at home?"

She said, "Yes, I'd like to invite you over for dinner." ”

I immediately said, "Don't be so busy, I'll just go to the restaurant and eat by myself." ”

She said, "But you came so far to see me, why did I say I wanted to have a meal too?" You're waiting for me in the hotel. I'll drive to pick you up at six o'clock. ”

I said, "Then thank you." ”

I wanted to go to someone's house for dinner, so I had to make some preparations, so I hurried to the hotel. Back in my hotel room, I opened my bag and suitcase, picked out what I had brought, and took out some as a gift. I don't know how many people there are in their family, it feels like there are three or four people, but I prepared five gifts in a plastic bag. Then, I changed into a more formal suit, put on a tie, put on leather shoes, and sat in the room while watching TV and waiting.

TV is full of English programs, I haven't learned English for many years, and when I watch English programs, I can only understand some content from the screen. There's a lot of sports in the show, either skiing or ice hockey. To kill time, I just watched the hockey game.
