Chapter 217: His Grievances
On this day, my uncle took me to Westminster Abbey, the exclusive church of the royal family, with Gothic architecture, with many spires and pheasant moats looming in the thick fog of London. The church is 'quite large', and we have been walking around it for a long time, and there are many historical relics in it, and the sense of age is very thick.
Whether it is the appearance or the inside, it looks very solemn, and there are many historical relics retained inside, which is mysterious and solemn.
I was more idle with my uncle, there was no time limit, I looked around in the church, my uncle was more concerned about our affairs, in fact, I didn't quite understand his intentions, it was between me and Liang Jing, and he seemed to be afraid of falling out between us, I tried to change the topic with him, but he always changed ways to guide me.
"Uncle, do you have the same experience? Why do you keep chattering so much? "I finally couldn't help but ask the question in my heart, and at this time we had reached the auditorium, the place where the royal family held ceremonies and weddings, and sure enough, it was the royal shrine, the dome, the 'intertwined' geometric shapes, the golden splendor and the quiet and solemn, although I did not believe in any church, but standing here, I was infected by this solemn building, and I couldn't help but be silent.
I found a place with my uncle and sat down, and after the uncle lamented three times, he lowered his voice and said, "How can I be so lucky to meet a simple 'woman' like you, as soon as my name goes out, most of the 'women' who come up are for money." People who don't know think that if they marry into the Liang family, they will fly on the branches, but the bitter taste is only known to those who come in. ”
Later, I learned that Uncle did have such an experience, he was a person with heavy feelings, and he fell in love with a 'woman' who didn't have any family status, and at first he never told the 'woman' what his identity was, and only used an ordinary identity to be with her.
When they were together, the uncle never gave her anything valuable, nor did he do anything 'promising', the two of them fell in love so plainly, the uncle said that he didn't have much money, and he couldn't give her a good one, and the 'woman' didn't dislike him at all, and even gave him all the money he earned and some of the savings he left, so that he could start a business.
I think that the uncle must have met this kind of 'woman' for the first time, so at that time he fell in love, fell in love with this 'woman' deeply, and moved the idea of marrying her. Soon after, he took the man home, and on the one hand, he confessed his identity to the 'woman', and on the other hand, he proposed to the 'woman'.
But he was born in this kind of family, and marriage is destined to be tied to business, interests, and even competition, so how could Mr. Liang let them be together? The uncle was young and stubborn, so he tried to resist, and dragged the 'woman' to 'elope' and so on, but in the end he was still arrested.
Hearing this, everything is normal and sounds 'good'. But now that I see that Uncle Xiao is alone, I also understand that the ending of this story is not so good.
The uncle was silent for a while, the smile on his face fell, and then he slowly turned his head to look at me and said: "Later, when I was the most violent, the third brother told me that the 'woman' was fake, he had seen it in Fengyue place, although it had been changed, but the appearance was still a little familiar, the third brother was curious, so he went to check, and the result was that Shun Teng 'touched' the melon and found the fourth brother's body." ”
He looked at me, and after being serious for a while, he suddenly raised his lips and laughed, and quipped, "So, I was deceived, and everything is fake." The funniest thing is that the first time I was with her, she was bleeding! She really 'spent' a lot of thought, and even ****** was re-mended, and she was very shy. Later, I finally escaped from home, and when I went to look for her again, the building was empty. She had a lot of money. ”
I frowned and couldn't help asking, "So, that 'female' person was deliberately arranged by the fourth uncle?"
He retracted his gaze, leaned back, 'touched' my head with one hand, and said, "At that time, I was too 'exposed' to be beaten, mainly because I was so smart that they were afraid. Let me tell you, if I had stayed in the Liang family, it would have been impossible for the current position of the head of the Liang family to fall into the hands of the third brother. ”
Uncle said that he was full of confidence and arrogance, and he also raised his eyebrows at me. I smiled, nodded, and said, "yes, yes!" I was silent for a while, and then asked, "Did you go to her later?"
Uncle looked at me deeply, then smiled coldly, didn't tell me the answer, didn't say anything about what happened to the 'woman' in the end, and didn't say anything more, the whole person became clear again, probably the 'woman' brought him a deep injury, so even if he fled London for so many years, there is still no way to forget. The two of us sat in the church for a while and then went out, circled around and got something to eat.
At the next stop, my uncle took me to see Big Ben, and when we got there, the sun had already begun to set, and we didn't go to Big Ben, but on this side of the bridge, standing on the pavement by the riverbank, with hot coffee in our hands.
Uncle said that when the sun sets in the west, the scenery here is the most beautiful.
I nodded, expressing my approval, looking at Big Ben in the sunset, I squinted my eyes slightly, fortunately there is an uncle, I think if it wasn't for the uncle to pull me out in time, I would probably quarrel with their mother and son, in this way, the relationship between me and Liang Jing will really break down, and it will make jokes because of this, so it is just like Su Meng's heart.
I raised my hand and took a sip of coffee from the cup, the wind was blowing, when I turned my head sideways, my hair was blown 'messy' and obscured my vision, I tidied up my hair, and when I was about to talk to my uncle, I swept to a familiar figure, walking this way. I paused and looked sideways for a while, and when he was about to get closer, I looked at my uncle sharply, lowered my voice, and said, "You called him over?"
Uncle glanced at me, glanced at me a little inexplicably, then glanced at the direction of my finger, and when he turned around, he saw Liang Jing walking closer. The uncle's reaction was very fast, and when he saw him, he immediately said hello, "Are you so worried about me, uncle?
I stood behind my uncle, just glanced at him, glanced away, leaned back on the fence behind me, bowed my head and drank coffee, I asked my uncle to call me that kind of coffee with a sweet taste, but I don't know why, this coffee still tastes a little bitter, I suspect that my uncle deliberately ordered me bitter coffee.
The three of them were silent for a while, and then the uncle smiled, patted Liang Jing's shoulder, and said, "Okay, Qingcheng will return it to you, and I'll go back first." What's the point of you taking her out for a walk and staying in that house all day!"
As I spoke, my uncle was about to leave, and I grabbed my uncle's clothes almost as a conditional reflex, glared at him, and said, "Uncle, you just said that you were going to take me to a big dinner, but it's not okay to escape! You just said that you want to sing a song of Jay Chou's "Big Ben" under Big Ben! I'm still waiting! You can't go. ”
I was dragging my uncle's clothes at the time, I wasn't ready to be alone with Liang Jing now, I didn't even know what to say to him in the first sentence, how could my uncle go!
Uncle turned his head and looked at me deeply, as if he was educating me again. I frowned, squeezed the hand of his clothes, but still couldn't let go, so I glanced away and said, "Not anyway." ”
I didn't look at Liang Jing, but I knew that his gaze had been locked on my face and never looked away. We were in a stalemate for a long time before Liang Jing spoke up and said, "It's all out, I can't go back to eat anyway, let's go together." Uncle, you don't mind taking me. ”
The uncle smiled awkwardly and said, "When ...... Of course I don't mind. ”
However, the uncle finally gave up, saying that he went to the toilet, but never came back. I was separated from Liang Jingzhong by a person, just standing quietly, no one spoke, I occasionally looked back, the afterglow of the setting sun stretched our shadows for a long time, and finally 'intersected' together.
It was probably because I had been tilting my head sideways for too long, and Liang Jing suddenly said coldly in my ear: "Uncle is already gone, you don't have to look at it." ”
I paused slightly, and when I turned my head, I always felt that Liang Jing seemed to be leaning a little closer to me, and the distance between us also shrank, I glanced at his elbow, and then looked into the distance, and said with great regret: "It's a pity, Uncle hasn't sung "Big Ben" yet, it's a pity, no one has a treat." ”
As I spoke, I pursed my lips, and my heart didn't know why, but it was pounding, and my hands were probably blown by the cold wind, and they were a little cold. The coffee cup is spinning in my hand, I ...... I was a little nervous, I slowly narrowed my eyes, and scolded myself a hundred times in my heart, which stabilized my mind a little.
"Am I not human in your eyes?" the voice sounded a little unpleasant.
I heard the sound and turned my head sideways, just to see his eyes lowered the movement, the sunset afterglow sprinkled on his face, plated with a layer of warm yellow, his facial features are very obvious, I can almost see his cheeks on the hair, the side of the face is full of lines, I think it must be the sun shining on my eyes 'flowers', just now he lowered his eyes and slightly lowered his head action, I actually felt that he was wronged, and looked like a poor little white rabbit!
I don't know why, I wanted to cry a little, and I endured it for a long time before I smiled and said, "Then you sing it to me." ”
